Abstract: There is a need for a cheaper method of producing bleached TMP and CTMP without impairing the properties of the pulp. This is made possible by the present invention, which relates to a method of producing said pulps in which finely divided lignocellulosic material is defibrated after pretreatment and the resultant pulp is bleached in the form of a suspension with bleaching agent that increases the anionic charge of the pulp fibres, whereafter the pulp suspension is cleaned and then possibly further treated, for instance bleached, characterised in that the defibration is effected with the aid of a) a refiner that has counter-rotating refining discs while using an extra high temperature (HTDD), or b) a refiner that has a single rotating refining disc(s) having a single refining zone or two parallel refining zones, while using an extra high temperature and while rotating the disc(s) at an extra high speed (RTS), and in that the cleaning treatment comprises first screening the pulp suspension and then hydrocyclone cleaning said suspension, wherewith the reject obtained with each cleaning process is treated individually and the treated reject is returned to the advancing pulp suspension.

Abstract: The present invention provides a medical device to cold treat desired regions. An injection tube with an open distal end is disposed inside of a catheter tube, defining a return lumen therein. A supply of cryogenic fluid, regulated by a controller mechanism coupled to the device, flows through the injection tube and into the distal tip portion of the catheter tube, whereupon the fluid is returned from the catheter through the return lumen. The expansion and evaporation of cryogenic fluid inside the device serves to cool the surrounding areas external to and proximate the distal end of the device. An additional restriction tube is provided in the length of the catheter tube to regulate the pressure of the flow of cryogen therethrough so as to create higher operating pressures in the distal end of the device and thereby enhance the cooling power and temperature stability of the device at a lower range of fluid flow rates without reaching the triple point of the cryogenic fluid.

Abstract: Methods for establishing the genotype of a DNA sample, and methods for investigating the potential sources of a DNA sample arising from a plurality of source, are provided, the methods being based on a method including: analysing the sample to produce a data profile for the sample for a locus; proposing a suggested genotype; generating a first stage profile for the locus for the suggested genotype; adjusting the first stage profile to account for one or more factors to give a simulation profile; and comparing the data profile and the simulation profile to provide an indication of the likelihood of the data profile given the suggested genotype. The methods in effect make adjustments to take the first stage profile, potentially through one or more intervening profiles, to the simulation profile, the simulation profile being an anticipation of the data profile which would be expected to occur for that suggested genotype in practice. The methods potentially include adjustments for one or more of preferential amplification and/or stutter and/or allele drop out and/or allele drop in and/or stochastic components and/or noise and/or preferential degradation and/or the relative contributions from the sources.
